This short course gives you practical experience training and evaluating computer vision models. You’ll learn how to build image preprocessing pipelines, apply data augmentation, and train deep learning models such as CNNs and Vision Transformers. You’ll also learn to evaluate performance using metrics such as mean Average Precision (mAP), Intersection over Union (IoU), precision, and recall, and to use error analysis to understand failure patterns. Through short videos, focused readings, hands-on labs, and guided coaching, you’ll practice real job tasks such as writing TensorFlow data loaders, training a Vision Transformer on plant-disease images, computing per-class AP and mAP, and comparing results across IoU thresholds. By the end, you’ll have a complete workflow you can adapt to your own projects and use to demonstrate your skills.

When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
